WPI's Virtual Private Network (VPN)

This client will allow you to use the WPI VPN in all versions of Vista, in both 32 and 64 bit versions.

  1. Download the correct version of the Vista VPN client from the VPN download page.
  2. If you do not know whether you have 32 or 64 bit Vista installed, you may find it with these simple directions:
    1. Click on the Start menu
    2. Right click on Computer and select Properties
    3. The field labeled "System type:" will indicate either 32 bit or 64 bit.
  3. Run the installer.
  4. You may be prompted with security confirmations. If so, answer yes.
  5. Once the installation is complete, you must reboot before the VPN will function properly.
  6. The client comes pre-configured for the WPI VPN. When you launch it, you only have to enter your CCC username and password to log in.
